Kleiner Tipp für alle #element (#matrix) Nutzer. Euch ist der Standard Nachrichten Stil von Element auch etwas zu unübersichtlich?

What is the best #decentralized #messenger out there for the long run?

We’ll be shutting down our public Matrix rooms and bridges due to issues with moderation, ecosystem, and lack of usage.

Ein neuer #Messenger der deutschen Firma #Volla, der vielversprechend wirkt?

Question to the #Matrix people out there. As far as I understand it "Element Calls" is the new Voip standard for Matrix, implemented in #ElementX on Android.

This means that when I use ElementX I can call other ElementX clients. My #Element desktop client doesn't receive the calls and I can't call a ElementX client from the desktop. I don't know the status on iOS as there is no such thing as ElementX as far as I know.

Is there somewhere a overview about the implementation status / roadmap?

Ephraims Wochenrückblick: KW 15, 2025

In der 15. Woche ging es um Matrix, Thunderbird und ein letztes Mal um AcroLinux.

Sehr angeregte Diskussion zu #Matrix, #Element und Co. im @eigenbaukombinat beim #HaGeWe

Beispielsweise:

* Unsichere Komponenten werden nicht gepatcht
* Sicherheitsfeatures fraglich
* Unternehmen arbeitet nicht mit der OpenSource Community zusammen
* Features werden immer wieder kurzfristig abgeschaltet / geändert
* Kommunikation zwischen Community Matrix Servern immer wieder durch unterschiedliche Versionsstände unmöglich
* Usabilty Probleme

Hab ich noch etwas vergessen?

Is there a way to disable the "Listening for notifications" notification in Element (on Android)? It's super annoying

I have now filed a bug report about the web version of #Element (the flagbearing #Matrix client) constantly using/waking my CPU while it is unfocused in a background tab in Firefox: https://github.com/element-hq/element-web/issues/29682

I'm hoping I'm not the only one observing this issue, and that some power saving improvements can be made, because to me this would look like a big drain on battery life for modern #laptops that *need* you to let their CPUs sleep while idle.

ElementX is *so* much faster than the current stable versions of Element and its various soft forks (I'm currently using SchildiChat).

As I've said before, I'm guessing it will take another 6-12 months for all the Matrix 2.0 upgrades to be rolled out and fully stabilized in the various app and server software. But if ElementX performance is anything to go by, the new and improved Matrix ecosystem will be well worth an open-minded test.

Okay, what's the best #Discord alternative for a #chat platform, I want one for my #streamer / #vtuber community, currently using Discord but want to Own It and such. For real this time.

Is #element / #matrix still the biggest one? I guess there's #IRC, I want whatever I can get the largest non-zero number of people using. And voice chat ideally, video not necessary.

Lol, why are *all* my #Matrix #Element clients now once again unverified? I literally re-verified them 2 days ago.

Whatever…

I said it before on Mastodon. I'm reposting this again. Comparing #DeltaChat and #Matrix together, if you want hassle free and consistent messenger for private #E2EE chats, don't go for Matrix. DeltaChat is way better.

However, if you want something like a public forum, or a public chatroom, don't go for DeltaChat. Matrix is way better suited for that. And DeltaChat does not support public groups at all. In DeltaChat groups, there is no admin or moderator and everyone have got permission to remove or add the others.

I think I have to write a longer post on my personal blog about these two, comparing them together.

PS: Another Matrix encryption bug few minutes ago triggered repost of this.
